Purple People Bridge and Big Mac Bridge span the Ohio River between Cincinnati Ohio and Covington Kentucky.

The 'Purple People Bridge', a metal truss bridge, was opened as the Newport and Cincinnati Bridge on April 1, 1872. The bridge was the region''s first railroad crossing over the broad river, connecting Sawyer Point in Ohio with Newport-on-the-Levee in Kentucky. Over the course of the next 35 years, the bridge was retrofitted to accommodate streetcar, pedestrian and automobile traffic. It was renamed the Louisville and Nashville Bridge, and in 2003 became a pedestrian-only bridge. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. At 17-feet-wide and 2,670 -feet-long (just over 1/2 mile) it is the longest pedestrian bridge in America that connects two states.
